DeleteMe: Data Broker Removal with Quarterly Reports
The service: DeleteMe
URL: deleteme.com
Cost: From $6.99/month (billed annually) · No free tier
What it is
DeleteMe (deleteme.com) is a data broker removal service that submits opt-out requests to people-search and data broker sites on your behalf. It's one of the longer-running services in this space, operated by Abine. After scanning for your listings, DeleteMe handles removals automatically and sends a detailed report every quarter showing what was found, what was removed, and what remains.
There is no free tier — all plans are paid.
How it works
After signing up and providing your information (name, address, date of birth), DeleteMe searches data broker sites for your profiles and begins the removal process. Progress is tracked in a dashboard. Every ~90 days, DeleteMe sends a report with before-and-after documentation of your listings.
How it's priced
DeleteMe separates its services into distinct categories rather than tiering by broker count:
Personal plans (data broker removal):
Singles — $10.99/month, billed yearly ($131.90/year). Covers 1 person.
Couples — $19.99/month, billed yearly ($239.90/year). Covers 2 people.
Families — $24.99/month, billed yearly ($299.90/year). Covers 4 people.
All personal plans include automated broker removal, removal status dashboard, free 3-month breach alerts, and email and chat support.
Standalone services (sold separately):
Data Breach Removals — $6.99/month, billed annually ($83.90/year). Targets data exposed in known breaches.
Search Engine Removals — $49.00 one-time fee per link. Submits removal requests to search engines for specific URLs.
Custom Removals — starting at $99.00 one-time fee. For listings that require manual or non-standard removal approaches.
CyberDeleteme is a separate credit-based service (no subscription). Credits are purchased in bundles — starting at $19.99 for 20 credits — and never expire. Individual reports are billed per search: an email breach scan costs 5 credits, a stealer logs report costs 9 credits, a full individual report costs 13 credits. It is not a removal service — it surfaces what's exposed. All DeleteMe plans include a 10% discount on CyberDeleteme credit purchases.
What it does not cover
Like all automated services, DeleteMe cannot reach every data broker — smaller or newer sites may require manual opt-outs. The Friday removal guides here cover individual sites where automated tools fall short.
